Some of the beaches in the Maldives like this is slowly being eaten by the ocean. You can also see considerable damage on the reefs and there's hardly any marine life close to the beach at least on Helengeli Island.

The first time I tried diving was in the Maldives. It's still something that I need to get used to. Unlike Philippine dive sites, there was hardly any marine life in the dive spot where I went to in the Maldives. All I saw was broken corals and a few fish on Helengeli.
